Gentlemen ; — Permit me to say that never
before did I get so much for my money as when I bought
my collars from you. They are not only superior to anything
of the class now in the market, but also far beyond the de-
scription you give of them in your catalogue Were men
acquainted with your goods, they would save money and
patience, and gain comfort and contentment. The collars
fit perfectly. It is a pleasure to wear them, and no one can
tell them from the best linen. Of my own free will I write
these sentiments. Very truly yours.

would say the goods received from yo>i give perfect satisfac-
tion. Your collars certainly are made to fit. I have com-
pared your goods with another make and like yours best.
They will stand more bending without breaking than any
other make of Rubber goods I ever saw. I would like to
handle your goods if we can arrange everything satisfac-
torj'. I remain. Yours respectfully,

Dear Sirs ■ —
I am putting your goods in to take the place of
collars, etc., ordered by my old patrons. One man who
runs a Bicycle Store here siives his collar hard usage, and
said that he would give fifty cents for a collar that would
last him over two weeks. Sold him one of yours and got
the half dollar, as he has worn his collar three weeks and
says it is as good as ever. The Collars I am ordering now
are just to take the place of goods, and have to ordecasthey
are called for. Shall be able to send a decent order as soon
as I get on the road again. Yours truly, R. L. G.

Windsor Collar and Cuff Company,
Gentlemen ;— I came across a lady this morning that
had a rubber collar she had worn all last summer and fall
and spring, and says she don't need another until she gets
that worn out. 1 got her to show it to me, and it had the
"Windsor" stamp on it. She said her husband had one also
that he had worn three summers and it was good yet.
Yours truly, J. E. Frazee.

I have sent you another order for four collars and one

have been the most honest firm that I ever dealt with. I
will try to do more for you this year.
Yours truly, H.F.Morrison.
Pittsfield, M.^ss., April 16, 1901.
Dear Sir : —
I have ordered and received three collars from yoiir
firm a few weeks ago, and mj' brother and I are well satis-
fied. We used to wear celluloid collars at fifteen cents
apiece, but they are not as good for the quality. They chip
on the edge and scratch the skin, turn yellow, don't last
very long, and cost more than yours, after all. I am,

N ISSUING OUR CATALOG FOR 1902,
we will say to our old patrons that we thank
them for past favors and hope to continue
to merit their patronage. To our new cus-
tomers, we call attention to the following
pages of this book, where they will find all the
latest styles and designs in Collars, Cuffs, Fronts,
Ties, etc. Also the reasons for the great success
of Windsor Goods.
The enviable reputation the "Windsor" Goods
have established for themselves by their recognized
merits, has, in the few years they have been on the
market, caused numerous attempts to imitate our
line and methods. It is flattering in the extreme
to know that the "Windsor" Goods are acknowl-
dged to be the standard even by competitors,
ut we shall not let this fact deter us from further
fforts along lines that will tend to make the
Windsor" products ever increase the number of
s permanent friends, who are now not only very
umerous in the cities and towns in this country,
at in many foreign countries as well. Our ex-
jrience gained during the years we have been
jvoting our whole time to the manufacture of
'^aterproof Collars, Cuffs, etc., enables us to place
ifore the public a complete line of goods that we
:n without fear, as to the outcome, invite the
asest inspection and comparison, knowing that
ere is no line that can compete.
No pains have been spared to make each collar
fit, but it is essential that the shirt should fit the
wearer. When the shirt binding is too large, as is
very often the case with a shirt that has been worn
and washed many times, it tends to pull the collar,
whether it be linen or composition, away from the
position in which it was designed to be worn.
This not only takes away from the beauty of the
collar, but tends to make it uncomfortable for the
wearer. "Windsor" Collars are designed to fit
well-fitting shirts, and, like gloves or shoes, must
be of the right size to present the best appearance
and to give the best satisfaction.
No manufacturer has ever offered in composi-
tion as extensive a line of striped patterns as we
list in this catalog. All our designs are up-to-
date, and we wish to impress upon our customers
the fact that the stripes ARE SOLID. By being
solid, we mean that the color goes through the
material, and is not printed on the surface, for
printed stripes will wear off after washing two or
three times, making such goods anything but
satisfactory.
Our goods are sold exclusively through agents.
If you cannot find our agent in your neighborhood,
we will be pleased to mail you what you wish,
postage paid, upon receipt of retail price. If you
can act as our agent, write for terms. You will
find the business a pleasant and profitable one.
We solicit correspondence and take pleasure
in answering questions.

CUFFS
If you have never worn a pair of Windsor Cuffs
you cannot begin to know the pleasure of wearing
cuffs. "I would never know but what they were
Linen," is a remark so often made, and explains
why they are so popular with the Doctor, Dentist,
the Clergy, the Commercial Traveler, Railroad Men,
Business Men, — in fact all classes are represented
among the admirers and wearers of these cuffs.
The fact that they require no laundering other than
what can be given by the wearer in one minute,
recommends them. When traveling one does not
need to start with a case full of fresh laundered
linen in order to have a clean, dressy appearance.
AH our styles are made in popular and up-to-date
designs, in White ; also in any of the five patterns
we list in Striped Goods.
Any ordinary Lever Cuff Button can be worn
with Premo and Velox style. We, however,
recommend the Automatic Pearl listed on Jewelry
page. The Beacon and Buoy Cuffs have regular
buttonholes like Premo and Velox, thus, any lever
or separable button can be used. Erie and Huron
have eyelet holes for the Separable Bar, Dumb-bell
or Plaids, which we recommend.

FRONTS
Shirt Fronts are in greater demand than ever,
as people are beginning to realize more and more
their worth. They are always ready to use. If you
wear one you can have your shirts washed at home
and save laundry bills. They are made to fit ; can
be worn over an ordinary negligee shirt, and can
also be used to cover a soiled bosom. The same
as cuffs and collars, they are indispensable to the
traveler who has once worn them. Waiters,
Musicians, Dancers, Minstrels andTheatrical People
all appreciate them. They are all right for the
Mayor — in fact for men in all walks of life. They
are highly recommended as chest protectors in
winter, while the wearer is not troubled by a wilted
bosom in summer. We make three designs— Wide
Pleat, Narrow Pleat, and Open Front.
For Ladies' wear, we have a specially designed
front, one that can be worn with a tailor-made
suit, for traveling or bicycle riding, picnics — or in
fact, for most any wear, there is nothing neater nor
more comfortable for Ladies than the Front we
have designed for them.

EVERYBODY
We carry a full line of Ties in numerous styles
and patterns. This is a department we have spent
much time on, as our productions show. All solid
colors, such as White, Black, Blue and Red, are
made to imitate corded silk, and when on, look as
well, and often better than a silk tie, as they always
look new, — while with a silk tie, once or twice
wearing will make wrinkles that cannot be gotten
out. Striped Ties are made to imitate washable or
silk fabric. They are so perfect in their make-up
as to be very hard to detect from the genuine. Our No. i Tie has a very strong
wire attachment to hook over the button, holding tie close to collar. Our No.
2 and No. 4 Ties are made alike, excepting the shields, which are made in pro-
portion to the height of collar. No. 2 being specially designed for low turn-down

material, thus continued washing will have no
effect upon them. Another point in the colors
used, is their clearness. They not only have a
clear, bright look when new, but always retain the
same clearness of color, which is true of no other
Striped Goods, not excepting the finest fabric. The
wearing qualities are just as great as in our white
composition, the quality being kept up to the same
high standard. The cuts shown on this page clearly

WHY
OUR AGENTS
SUCCEED
One unfamiliar with our methods and the advantages
of the "Windsor" Goods over the so-called rubber goods
made to Imitate our line, will gather, we trust, from the
preceding pages some valuable points.
We propose to give here some additional facts, so
that an agent will be enabled to explain the merit of
"Windsor" Goods more intelligently. Take advantage of
the help our correspondence department can give you.
Our WATCHWORD is CO-OPERATION. We en-
courage questions, knowing that an agent who does not
ask questions is not interested to learn, and we could
write instructive letters without it being of value to him.
As soon as an agent gets one of our circulars or sees our
advertisement, and asks questions about our goods, we
feel encouraged to write at length to help him answer
objections that may be brought against our goods. We
furnish circulars for distribution on which the agent
stamps his name, — thus he gets advertised locally. (Ask
for rubber stamp price list.
In selling "Windsor" Goods an agent need not recog-
nize competition, since a purchaser that is satisfied with
the cheap imitation goods, can be easily shown the
superior points of our goods and gained as a customer.
When once a customer, always a customer !
These are the leading features of " Windsor^' Ooodt :
They are the strongest and most pliable. (Ask for
explanation how to make the test.)
A variety of finishes. LINEN finish imitates the
new linen collar or domestic dull effect. MEDIUM
finish, the ordinary laundry polish, and the GLOSS finish
the extra shiny laundered work.
OUR EXCLUSIVE PATTERNS In fancy striped
goods have quality. They are a specialty and meet the
requirements of a large class of customers. Our co-
operation and the superiority of "Windsor" Goods are
the principal reasons for our agents' success.
Our western trade is supplied by our Chicago, 111.,
factory, and the eastern, Canadian and foreign trade, by
the factory at the address given below. We always have
territory for energetic agents and want a representative
in every city and town.
"Windsor" Goods are appreciated wherever worn.
We invite Inspection. Write and learn how we do

Believe I could have sold a hundred with the collars already
o'-dered to deliver at once. Make me a special ofifer on a
hundred, five hundred and one thousand collars, to be
ordered in regular styles and sizes in catalogue.
Fraternally yours, J. Rufus Walton.

Windsor Collar Company,
Gentlemen : — In replying to yours of recent date,
I will state that I never purchased a better-fitting collar in
my life ; for comfort and durability it cannot be beaten, and
it always is nice and clean and saves laundry bills. I have
shown the samples to my friends and they all like them.
Inclosed is another small order As soon as I get a few
collars scattered among the young men I will not have any
trouble in securing orders. Yours truly,
W. J. Bassham.
Some time ago my Windsor Collar gave out after twelve
months' wear. I tried to get another in several stores here.
The clerk said he had just as good. I took one of them,
just-as-good kind, and wore it just one week. (Twelve
Months— One Week. ) I didn't do a thing to that clerk, but
tell him to " Go away back and rubber down."
Please send me price list of your latest, so that I can
order the good kind, without the "just as" attached to it.
Wishing you success, etc , I am.
Yours respectfully,
Edward R." Faxon, Jr., Night Clerk.

To Whom it may Concern :
It is my full belief, there are no better collars, nor
cufifs on the market anywhere today than those made by the
Windsor Collar Company of Chicago, 111. They are really
perfect. I use them all the time. Yours,
Rev. Dr. J. L Countermine.

Gentlemen : —
I am at a very small place and hunt vip orders all over
the road, and am going to try and get up a larger trade on
these goods I have never seen a person wear the first
collar without wearing the second one, as they give such
satisfaction ihat persons weaiing them will never have
anything else. Very truly yours, W. I<. Hammit.

Dear Sirs :— Enclosed is a money order for
fifteen dollars (S15) and another order for Rubber goods.
I am devoting my entire attention to this work, and I
would order goods much faster if I had the money to pay
for them, but I'll come to it by degrees. I have no trouble
selling the goods. They are the best line of goods I ever
handled.
Hoping to hear from you and receive goods soon, I
remain. Yours respectfully,
